This is a dangerous situation. If your rollout is being tripped open, the heat is going where it should not be going. The fan stays on because it is designed to dissipate the heat.

Need to make sure you are getting voltage to the motor. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/thomas_092728000e6acb79

Since there are no specific numbers for your equipment, I will respond generically. Part of the cooling process is removing moisture from the air. This sounds like it is a condensate drain. You may be missing a hose or a pan or both, that collect the moisture removed from the air. This is the only reason I know of for any A/C unit to be discharging air unless it is a water cooled unit.

Assuming this is a heat pump I'm guessing you have a bad temp sensor. Your outdoor fan is likely controlled by a temp sensor so it only runs as needed during heating. Fan not coming on and compressor still needs cooled therefore compressor protection kicking in????? If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/thomas_092728000e6acb79

Remove the outside fuse from the unit that is not cooling... remove all the sheet metal from around the outside unit.. see if there is a lot of grass/weeds/ bird nests, or other material in the coils.. if there is... use a high pressure hose to clean the coils completely!!!!! (I had this done to mine...worked much better!!)..if this doesn't help,, I am afraid it might be time for some freon... and yes..its $$$$...

The drain is likely clogged. Take a shop vac to the drain on the exterior of the home. Hopefully this will clear the drain line. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/thomas_092728000e6acb79
